I felt it was overall very positive.  Some the of the cases highlighted woman
who were struggling BUT THEY CONTINUED TO BREASTFEED and they sought the help
of the breastfeeding experts LACTATION CONSULTANTS not other health care
professionals who as the article outlines are NOT trained to assist BF women.


One woman even quit her job to continue to breastfeed.  It also mentions many
of the benefits both for mother and baby.

It goes over the increased rates of BF initially and at 6 months and
insinates that two of the moms are still BF at 1 and 2 years.   Chris Betzold
